Lars, if you could implement a feature in L3p that carries a vector over to POVray, that would be great. Here's an example. Let's say camera.dat or light.dat were made up of two parts - a base point and an arrow. The base point would be the origin, (...) (23 years ago, 1-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad)

1 x 8 usually refers to studs, not holes. Holes in Technic beams are most often located between studs, so there would be 7 in a beam of 8 stud length. -Andy Lynch ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eduardo Vazquez" <eduvazhar@terra.es> To: (...) (23 years ago, 31-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Ummmm. I think 7 holes is correct. I think standard Technic Beams have holes that are equal to... Holes = Studs - 1 With the exception of the 1x1 with hole and 1x2 with 2 holes. So. 8 Studs - 1 = 7 holes. Count'em, if I'm wrong I will eat my (...) (23 years ago, 31-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad)
